The culmination of this partnership will be a May 2 opening to show off the new spaces, along with a series of workshops titled 'Best Practice: Getting The Most From Your Rehearsals'.

This'll be followed by a Strummerville Sessions gig, with music from The Wild Wolves – featuring Joe's daughter Lola on sax – and Dan Smith from London, plus local acts Panama Kings, Axis Of and a Noel Watson DJ set.

Strummerville celebrates the legacy of Joe Strummer by supporting new music, with grassroots projects in London, Belfast and more.

Strummer was a big fan of Northern Irish punk, once writing an article on the subject, stating:
“When punk rock ruled over Ulster, nobody ever had more excitement and fun. Between the bombings and shootings, the religious hatred and the settling of old scores, punk gave everybody a chance to live for one glorious burning moment.”

Stuart Bailie from Oh Yeah is delighted to have Strummerville involved in the centre. “My generation in Northern Ireland was massively informed by The Clash," he says. "They taught us to look beyond sectarianism and dead traditions and to imagine a more adventurous future. The Strummer legacy is still alive in Belfast and it’s a thrill to have a real connection to Joe in our building.”

Admission to the Strummerville Sessions gig is £6, payable on the door. And if you want to have a look at the shiny new rooms at Oh Yeah, doors open at noon on May 2.
